So were ALL of my bananas (i've had the home depot dwarf cavendish for like 4 years now and still never tasted the fruits. almost did a couple years ago but frost got them)

I do a deep mulch system with compost, compost tea spray, well water irrigation during dry spells and proper thinning of the mats removing water suckers.
